I think Denver was stupid for drafting Tebow in the first place. I miss mikey and his donkey suckfest.

heard Rex is on the outs in 'Skins country to....Going w/their 3rd stringer last year. 'Ain't that a big bag of suck for the rex cannon; twice ditched for the third stringer.

1) Brady Quinn couldn't QB a HS team. At this point in his career he's a veteran clipboard carrier.

2) Orton can throw for yards but as we all know, will never be a Super Bowl QB. Plus he's trade bait as soon as the lockout ends.

3) The fans want Tebow, Elway wants butts in the seats and the fans have already proven they'll be no shows if Timmy don't play.

The Broncos have a ways to go before they turn the corner so they might as well find out what they have in Tebow. Can he or can't he be the guy to replace "The Legend". If not they'll need to use next years first on a QB. Orton isn't the guy and they already know that. He's history as soon as Tebow gets the nod or they'll trade him for picks they can use to manueveur with next draft.

Kyle gets about as much love around here as Rex got his last year in Chicago. He needs to start over with another team without the expectations of him they did out here. We got very lucky that McD was coach when we pulled the trigger on the Cutler deal. Wouldn't happen again in a million years with Elway here now.

yeah here's a local denver comic, guess denver not thrilled on orton:

Think it's more kyle a back up, not a franchise QB, and as such, when people 'hope" he is the answer, get dissapointed.. IMO not orton's fault, he is what he is- and unfort people expect more

exactly and guess that's my point- he can win games ,but not going to in the playoff's and that's what fans want.. its like larry brown as a coach, he's great if have a bad team and want to get it winning,, no one is better,, but he can't get the teams over the playoff hump to championships and why always on "next job"... And to me its not a knock on either, its just what they are..
